“: it’s as though only intellectuals can really “understand” God”

No human understands God. The Fathers are quite clear on this.

I understand that we can never fully understand God. That said, if there were to be NO understanding, then why bother with Revelation or Scripture at all? He gave us the ability to understand, did He not? Christ speaks of understanding quite often.
